almost us
Almost Us: A Tale of Love, Heartache, and Unmet Expectations
Lyrics
You didn't know what you wanted
You were uncertain about your desires
Led me on and you got your way through to my heart
You misled me, gaining access to my heart
And I
Undefined continuation or pause in thought
Almost fooled myself but
I almost deceived myself but
We'd talk till six am in the morning
We engaged in deep conversations until 6 am
Didn't care if I got no sleep, you were my energy
Sleep didn't matter; you were my source of energy
Don't need no pick me up and
I don't need external motivation
Maybe it's the hopeless romantic in me
Perhaps my romantic nature is to blame
Logic escapes me when you come over
Logical reasoning disappears when you're around
Maybe it's just that the bar's on the floor
Maybe the standards are low
Ooh
Expression of emotion (Ooh)
Tell me why I wanna
Questioning why I feel the urge to
Scream at the top of my lungs
Yell loudly
But still hold you in my arms
But still want to hold you close
You make me lose my damn mind
You make me lose control of my thoughts
Don't know what's real or what's fake
Uncertainty about reality
Maybe it's all a mistake
Possibly everything is a mistake
Me and you oh were almost us
We were almost an 'us'
Ooh, ooh, Hmm
Expression of emotion (Ooh, ooh, Hmm)
You talk the talk but never follow through (follow through)
You speak convincingly but never act on it
And I sit here just wondering
I ponder if the issue is with me or you
If it's just me or your
Undefined continuation or pause in thought
Goddamn immaturity you
Expressing frustration with immaturity
You should've never had a shot with me, babe
You should not have had a chance with me
I'm too good for you
I am too good for you
But I kick myself every time I gave you chances
Regretting giving chances despite self-worth
You never should've had and
You shouldn't have had any chances
Maybe I'm just tired of playing these games
Possibly tired of playing games
If you just tell me what you really wanted
If you were honest about your desires
But fuck it
Expression of frustration (explicit language)
I guess that the bar's on the floor
Maybe the standards are low (again)
Ohh
Expression of emotion (Ohh)
Tell me why I wanna
Questioning the urge to scream loudly
Scream at the top of my lungs
Yelling while desiring to hold you
But still hold you in my arms
You make me lose control of my thoughts
You make me lose my damn mind
Undefined continuation or pause in thought
Don't know what's real or what's fake
Possibly everything is a mistake
Maybe it's all a mistake
Expressing doubt or confusion
Me and you were almost us
We were almost an 'us' (repeated)
